Control Panel

The control panel gives you fast access to all of your projects, especially to
recently used and favorite projects. It also shows you the description of
projects without opening them, if available. Just create a README.md inside your
project’s directory!

Schematic Editor

The schematic editor is very easy to use and still powerful. Thanks to the
innovative library concept, you don’t have to worry about choosing footprints
while drawing the schematic. In contrast to other EDA tools, you also don’t have
to worry about manually assigning symbol pins to footprint pads later in the
board editor.

Board Editor

Ever struggled in the middle of layouting if you need to relocate some devices
before continue routing the traces? LibrePCB’s board editor just lets you fork
your half-done layout to continue with two different layouting strategies! Of
course all of the existing boards are always in sync with the schematics.

Library Browser

When adding components to the schematic, most EDA tools let you choose them from
a simple list of the installed libraries (often named by manufacturer). LibrePCB
thinks this is a stupid system and thus lets you choose your components from a
tree of categories instead, no matter which library provides them.

Library Manager

Managing libraries has never been easier than with LibrePCB’s library manager.
It downloads, installs and updates libraries directly from the internet. No more
need to do this manually.
